Another update - several weeks later still using Slacker. I am not as impressed with the online content, there seems to be several labels that won't allow streaming in Canada, although main stream stuff is there and lots of fringe too - I just see many list items greyed out as I troll around on a discovery quest. It still keeps the music discovery happening though which is what is important to me. However now that I am building up a history what I find neat is that I have a long list of songs from many genres that I have flagged as 'loved'. With a couple of clicks I am listening to a radio station that is based on all of my favourite songs - so it plays those songs plus I can let the station wander around a bit for even more exploration. I know none of of this is really ground breaking but it is really working for me. Since Pandora is just not an option in Canada (well officially anyway
).
Cheers,
